I overheard a non-english speaking say this in a thick accent. And I thought, huh, could freedom be overrated? To have no restraints...doesn't it mean to drift?

It's time to double down. It's actually always been time to double down on beauty.

Time to get creative for everyone on your Nice list. That includes yourself. I'm keeping it easy—20% off your entire purchase—Black Friday through Cyber Monday. Check out the Holiday Card collection—some bright, bold and hopeful things to send near and far. And the Gift Gui

It's been a quiet day here at the studio. I spent most of it looking at old work, newer work, and ideas for future work. This little guy showed up on my studio window and stuck around to peep in from side to side. Such a beautiful silhouette.
It's really hard to NOT be thankful t

1 DAY. Tomorrow. You can't really tell here, but I became fascinated with Japanese fishermen's coats, and sashiko sewing techniques. The patience, the detail, and ultimately the beauty. A good number of cards have echoes of this art form, you'll see them when we launch. Join the

1 DAY. Tomorrow. Can't wait. This re-launch process began in February right before the lockdown. It's been "a process", not just making the work, but the harder thing: figuring out what kind of pictures I want to make that would actually be interesting to people. Enough to keep a

This picture took its time but it also came easy. A very basic kind of study in light, except for the velvet feel of the wings: the way light hits that surface seems to ignore the laws of physics—shadows get muted. Anyway, there are a few butterflies in the new collection. The

Partially derived from a far-eastern tattoo design. This picture is not doing it justice though. Not at all.

This flame is a hybrid: Japanese woodblock, tibetan drawing, tattoo art, comic book art are all influences, represented here somewhere in the lines between the lines. Some originally in ink, some digitally drawn but I can't tell the difference anymore. I figure you shouldn't eith

4 DAYS OUT. Let me tell you about process. Going digital means being able to make perfect quality multiples. I must have practiced getting the curves on the flame right for much longer than one should. But once I understood how the eye followed the lines, variations became much

5 DAYS OUT. Chinoiserie and a tattooist sensibility for drawing. I've been enjoying the process of trying new things, and working toward beauty that way. More when we launch.
